@ Millie74 - Rosie doesn't get those little spots on her ears but my other cat Maddie does from time to time. The vet said it could be down to a number of different things.
1. A single flea bite can cause a cat to scratch in a certain place even if that was not the area the cat was bitten in, this can result in small abrasions on the skin which are not so much infected but inflamed for a short while.
2. An allergic reaction can sometimes cause little spots to appear on the ears, food, textiles and even plants in your garden could be to blame.
3. If you have another cat, their rough and tumble can result in these small raised spots, much like when a cat scratches your arm and for a couple of hours afterwards its a little bit swollen and itchy.
Hope this helps.... the vet that gave me the advice was a dermatology specialist.
